Career Interest Inventory and Exploration: Classroom Unit and Project

Career Exploration Unit and Classroom Project: This career counseling classroom unit allows students the opportunity to reflect on their own interests using a color coded based interest survey based on John Holland’s 6 personality types.

Students discuss in pairs their common interests and hobbies and complete a brainstorming activity. Students receive a list of possible careers related to their colors and choose one to conduct further internet research. Of course, none of this dictates their future! This is to get them thinking and reflecting.

What’s included:

Lesson plan
Color coded career interest inventory
Partner Venn diagram and T chart
Color coded career lists
Internet research checklist to review how to find good internet resources
Final project poster
